Morphological structure of salivary glands, alimentary canal, and Malpighian tubules in adult Eurydema spectabilis Horváth, 1882 (Heteroptera, Pentatomidae)

open access: yesMicroscopy Research and Technique, Volume 88, Issue 1, Page 323-341, January 2025.
In E. spectabilis, the salivary glands are divided into principal and accessory glands. Microvilli and numerous secretory granules were found in Malpighian tubules. Numerous uric acid crystals and bacteria were found in the rectum lumen. Abstract Eurydema spectabilis (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) has a piercing‐sucking mouth type and feeds on plant sap ...

A revised classification of the assassin bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae) based on combined analysis of phylogenomic and morphological data

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 102-138, January 2025.
This study produces the first combined morphological and molecular phylogenetic analysis for Reduviidae and reveals synapomorphies and diagnostic traits for clades at the ranks of subfamilies and tribes. Based on our resulting robust phylogenetic reconstructions and subsequent optimization of morphological character information, we propose a ...

Ants and predators cope with pest pressures by interacting with the surrounding vegetation at low spatial scales

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 10, Page 1187-1197, December 2024.
Abstract Biological control of pests can be enhanced by the presence of semi‐natural habitats within agricultural landscapes. However, this assumption remains controversial due to inconsistencies related to the type of agroecosystems and the natural enemies studied.

Phenotypic divergence of Glossina morsitans (Diptera: Glossinidae) populations in Zambia: Application of landmark‐based wing geometric morphometrics to discriminate population‐level variation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2024.
Land‐mark based geomorphometric wing analysis of Glossina morsitans populations in Zambia shows that this tsetse exhibit significant population‐level variation in fly size and wing shape suggesting high levels of population structuring. The main drivers of this structuring could be random genetic drift and local adaptation to environmental conditions ...

Cytogenetics as a tool for Triatomine species distinction (Hemiptera-Reduviidae) [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1992
Several cytogenetic traits were tested as species diagnostic characters on five triatomine species: Rhodnius pictipes, R. nasutus, R. robustus, Triatoma matogrossensis and T. pseudomaculata. Four of them are described for the first time. The detailed analysis of the meiotic process and the application of C-banding allowed us to identify seven ...

Differences between phytophagous and predatory species in Pentatomidae based on the mitochondrial genome

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2024.
The phytophagous and predatory species in Pentatomidae were compared and analyzed. And we constructed the phylogenetic trees and the time tree. Our research results provide data supporting for the evolutionary patterns and classification of Pentatomidae.

Trypanosomes and gut microbiota interactions in triatomine bugs and tsetse flies: A vectorial perspective

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 253-268, September 2024.
Trypanosoma sp. presence modulates or has zero effect on gut microbiota composition. Microbiota presence modulates or has zero effect on Trypanosoma sp. growth. Vector biology of triatomine bugs and tsetse flies influences their gut microbiota composition.
